Reasons Lyrics

Life is moving so fast, it's like I'm time traveling

Demons linger from the past, got my spine rattling

But I don't mind battling, it keeps my mind active

A little light and magic, some of the finest tactics

Rhyme addict with lines I can recite backwards

Practice is half of the trade, the rest is hard to master

I see you talk but I ain't hearing when you whine and chatter

Ya'll are some fine actors, but I can see right through

Real people are few, I gotta light the fuse

And bring the truth from the shadows presented right to you

Act like you never knew, like you ain't got a clue

But snakes in the grass don't matter when you're mowing through

Trust ain't easy, it's hard to muster believe me

Cuz people try to deceive me, I cut 'em off, man fuck it all

Gotta keep the circle small, period

Leaving is hard, it makes you queasy, but in the end it's relieving

When I leave for the night, keep the light on

I'll be back, don't miss me when I'm gone

Staying up till dawn when I write songs

Keep the world outside with the blinds drawn

When I leave for the night, keep the light on

I'll be back, don't miss me when I'm gone

Staying up till dawn when I write songs

Keep the world outside with the blinds drawn

I don't wanna change for you, or you

I'm just doing me, it's who I wanna be

I don't got a thing to prove, to prove

I'm just doing me, it's who I wanna be

Fiction is strange, but reality is up in flames

So when I'm stuck in my own world I'll gladly take the blame

You can catch me in my ivory tower

Above the clouds, so it doesn't matter if the sky is dour

Talk is cheap, but it can cost your life

So when I speak on this mic, I hope I get it right

They tell me time is money, money is power, power corrupts

I don't need much, I just roll with the punches, and make the most of what comes

When I leave for the night, keep the light on

I'll be back, don't miss me when I'm gone

Staying up till dawn when I write songs

Keep the world outside with the blinds drawn

When I leave for the night, keep the light on

I'll be back, don't miss me when I'm gone

Staying up till dawn when I write songs

Keep the world outside with the blinds drawn

I don't wanna change for you, or you

I'm just doing me, it's who I wanna be

I don't got a thing to prove, to prove

I'm just doing me, it's who I wanna be

Deep down, I don't ever wanna stop,

Need 3 rounds cuz I wanna give 'em all I got

Need to step off stage, need to reroute

Need to speak out, dogs out, set the leash down

Turning tracks into gold like Midas

That's just where my mind is, wanna make something timeless

I'm a giant, Goliath, when I write with a pen

lit like I'm filled with lightning

Imma step right in like I own the whole spot

And I won't stop till I can't vibrate my voice box

Tired of these kids like I'm trapped in a toy shop

Playing these games with no brains, make the noise stop

You can go up on the internet

And spit your venom but you're only sounding like an idiot

Immune to all the poison as your puny teeth are sinking in

I'll back it up and load another clip as I begin again

You know I'm in control cuz I'm on another channel

When I speak, I'm a fiend, I'm a beast, I'm a vandal

Cuz I'm untouchable, man I'm on another plane

And I'm so high up, I don't even feel the rain

Like a head surgeon, I dig into your brain

I inject my words and you never feel the same

And I know I'm not doing this in vain

Cuz even if I stumble I know I won't crumble like clay

Write words, but you don't got shit to say

You're screaming don't sleep imma hit the hay

Maybe I'll get to it on a different day

But for now I ain't even got time to hit play

Cuz I feel like the whole world has gone mad

We're living on borrowed time and forgot to pay the tab

Do the math, we ain't got long

But till then, imma make the most of it all till I'm gone
